Subject: I CAN HELP YOU OUT FOR REAL TO TRANSFER YOUR FUND WITH HONESTY AND
SINCERITY
Attn:, My name is Mr Austin Thomas , and i work with the Apex Bank of Africa ,precisely CENTRAL BANK OF BENIN REPUBLIC as a Manager in(Telex/Computer Section) . I am incharge of all Payment into Foreign Bank Account.I will help you IF you would not deny me after i helped you for real. As i was going through the computer this morning ,i saw your name and your unpaid fund which has been kept for quite some time now unpaid due to some outstanding payments you need to offset before receiving yout payment or before your fund could be transferred to you,though this your payment was sometime discussed with our Director, but this information i want to give to you now , do not discuss it with our Director as i will not be happy if you do and i will abandon it as soon as you inform him about this development . You see , i am ready to credit this your money into you bank account just of Free Of Charge (FOC)since i am incharge here, i am given you 100% Assurance that i can do this for you, but on the ground that you will give me 5% of the total sum IMMEDIATELY this fund is credited into your account just as soon as the credit is effected , i will cover up every tracing point about this fund so that no one could trace or find out about this fund again. You know this thing i am embarking on is illegal, but i want to take the risk so that i will make some money to establish good business out there. Please if the above sugestion is ok by you ,do reply me immediately i will inform you about the next step. Note that the hard disc for all foreign payments is only one and there is no way i can use the same disc to credit your account to avoid any trace and on that ground you will have to buy a hard disc in your country and send to me so that i will transmit all your file into it and later use it to credit your account.You don't need to spend money any more before you receive your money except the hard disc you will buy and send to me. I would have asked you to send money to buy it here in africa, but for the fact that it will be cheaper in your country than here, hence i wanted you to buy it there and send it to me.The name of the hard disc is (Supio H4) and please do not buy any one made in taiwan, the best is the one made in England ok please take note, and what is needed is just one hard disc only to execute this transaction ok.This hard disc is used for crediting of an account, only use in the bank and financial houses . Just buy it and send it to me immediately so that before the next 48hrs the job will be completed. Thanking you in advance for your understanding and your urgent response will be truely appreciated. Please reply this mail: (austinthomas111@yahoo.fr) immediately you receive it for more explanation.
Yours sincerelyMr. Austin Thomas(CENTRAL BANK OF BENIN)
